Buckle up, gamers and movie lovers—Mario is heading back to the big screen, and this time he’s going intergalactic. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie officially hits theaters April 3, 2026, and it’s shaping up to be one of the wildest, wackiest space adventures ever to come out of the Mushroom Kingdom.
Following the mega-hit The Super Mario Bros. Movie (you know, the one that crushed the box office with over $1.3 billion worldwide), Mario and friends are gearing up for a brand-new cosmic quest. And yes—your favorite voices are back! Chris Pratt, Anya Taylor-Joy, Charlie Day, Jack Black, Keegan-Michael Key, Benny Safdie, Kevin Michael Richardson, and Brie Larson all return to bring the galaxy to life with action, comedy, and plenty of star-powered chaos.
Behind the scenes, the dream team is also back in action. Directors Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic return to the helm, with Matthew Fogel once again writing the screenplay. Producer legends Chris Meledandri of Illumination and Shigeru Miyamoto of Nintendo are teaming up to bring the magic (and the mayhem) to the big screen. Even composer Brian Tyler is back to give us the orchestral glow-up we deserve.
Co-financed by Universal Pictures and Nintendo, and released worldwide by Universal, this next chapter promises high-flying planets, iconic power-ups, and more Luma-level cuteness than we may be emotionally prepared for.
So mark your calendars—and maybe stock up on 1-Up Mushrooms—because The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is ready to launch you into an adventure that’s truly out of this world. 🌟🚀🍄
